Trying to take this all in
And the church bells softly chime
It's just for me to kick in space
And the guilty ones can all die slowly
Hey hey
And all live slowly
Hey hey
The pain and pleasure
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
Pain and pleasure
Songwriter: Andy Partridge
The sky will cry
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely
And the church bells softly chime
But to me it's very very beautiful
Senses working overtime
And all the world is biscuit shaped
'Tween the lemons and limes
And bullies might give you black eyes
Trying to taste the difference
And birds might fall from black skies
Senses working overtime
It's just for me to feed my face
And all the world is football shaped
And the innocents can all sleep safely
I've got one, two, three, four, five
And the church bells softly chime
And buses might skid on black ice
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
I've got one, two, three, four, five
There's straw for the donkeys
And all the world is football shaped
Senses working overtime
'Tween the lemons and limes
Senses working overtime
And the innocents can all live slowly
And all sleep safely
I've got one, two, three, four, five
'Tween the lemons and limes
My, my

There's food for the thinkers
One, two, three, four, five
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
Trying to take this all in
Senses working overtime
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
My, my
The pain and pleasure
The clouds are away
There's fodder for the cannons
Trying to taste the difference
The sun is pie
Night fights day
Trying to taste the difference
It's just for me to kick in space
And all sleep safely
Jewels for the thirsty
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
Senses working overtime
And all die slowly
Trying to take this all in
